This is a woodblock print by Katsushika Hokusai, a renowned Japanese artist known for his innovative use of perspective and color. The image depicts an Oni, a Japanese demon, being pelted with beans. The Oni's grotesque features are accentuated by the artist's detailed brushstrokes, capturing its fierce expression and powerful physique. The background is dotted with beans, suggesting the ongoing attack, and creating a dynamic composition. Hokusai's signature style is evident in the print's intricate details and masterful use of line. This print is a prime example of ukiyo-e, a genre of Japanese art that flourished in the Edo period, depicting scenes from everyday life and folklore.
